Legendary Robbie Basspear
My man Robbie was bout that combat. 😂
He is terribly missed RIP
Loved Robbie in those live concerts back in the B.U. early 80's 🔥
Original stand up Robbie;no nonsense man, he's demeanor said that to...rest in power King
The more I hear about the music business, the less impressed I am with it...
serious ting...
Facts my brother facts
You could say the same thing about life too
I worked in it for 20 years, Hunter S Thompson summed it up best - "The music business is a cruel and shallow money trench, a long plastic hallway where thieves and pimps run free, and good men die like dogs. There's also a negative side."
Robbie was not only a phenomenal musician globally. But he was a tough dude. Word has it he used to bring his hammer into the recording studio.
…not many people know that Robbie was rough and tough…
The older people told me about his rude boy days when he use to live on Jacques rd east Kingston and how he loved to eat
Yeah Mon the knowledge is great in dis place.... Jah bless
Nice one Robbie love maxi ❤🎉
...Wow. I made it to a couple of shows during this tour....Cincinnati and Columbus (Oct '88). They opened in Boston (last week of September '88). Forever Memories.✨
I too, was at both Concerts in Cincinnati & Columbus 🎶 Had a great time, got back stage & took mass pics 🎶🎶

He knew he was at fault to some degree.

RAS is a wonderful font of 🎼Reggae music🎼 knowledge. But I have to say Peter Tosh was one of the most handsome. Raspec ❤️💛💚🖤
Robbie was n rockers movie?
Ok, after Keithy couldn't get his part of bargain with an agreement through Maxi Priest's former manager which was bad enough for Keithy to still feel hung up over something that never transpired giving rise to ideas that Maxi is still singing so he wants his money one way or the other. Maxi on the other hand only added more fuel to the fire when Keithy got locked away for sometime, Maxi just couldn't keep his shango stick in his pants didn't even catch any form of hints that the women he had an affair with was Keithy's girlfriend [the Keithy want to delete him at this moment]... Artiste life is a wild and messy trip at times!
Keithy axe simular to super cat,
small axe wss his sound system from brixton london, but i think it was originally from ja, they used to play against a sound then rob sound amps before leaving,
There is a video,
coxsone at clapham common,,
were you can see the axe man around coxsone sound in the 80s
I grew up with all these guys and remember this very well. I used to travel around with coxson in the 80s.. Keith's brother had a pool house on landor Rd in stockwell. The whole axe family were tough. The preddys
Keithy Axe waz NOT from BIRMINGHAM, but from LONDON (rip)
South London. Small axe sound system.. Keith's brother had a pool house on the landor Rd starkys pool hse. Yes they from stockwell.. the preddie family
@@jaydebeer7251 Small Axe was a gangster sound system, in a sound clash win or lose they're taking your records AND equipment! And just be lucky they don't slice you up getting it.. they were brutal
@@darganx not with Coxson or hightous and a few others. Yes they done it with some but not all.
@@jaydebeer7251 Yeah they didn't fk with Coxsone, there's always man that's badder!
Robbie the general o/c barbells
Keith axe was keith preddie. Big family. Knew him well and his bigger brother starky who had a pool house on landor rd stockwell south london.
Wow!

@ReggaeAppreciationSociety hey mon, you've the BEST documentaries ever on RUclips. For real. I'd love to hear one unless you did it already about HIM. I mon a guess that WE all know He the King of all kings. His mere utterance silence the th heathen, I bear witness right now. I know if you do a story about HIM, the wold will drop down to their knees. You don't need to try hard , I mon know, I just want every soul to know lord Jesus is Ethiopian. Until then, bless forIver. I'm a jam toots country roads for now. Selassie I live. Children ya!
@@Infinitebrandon Yes I Brandon mi lion. Great suggestion. Will look at it.
Warrior Priest
This was gripping...
Loving this kind of content
Blessings 🙏🏾❤
Keiti Axe was from London and this story is true
R. I. P. Barbells Robbie Shakespeare
Small Axe Sound System was from Brixton, One of the best Weight And Treble Sound System In the 1970s - 80s, Small Axe Sound did not go looking for trouble but if you brought it to them you was in big trouble.
Stockwell not Brixton. But kinda the same back then. Keith preddie
It has been a long time but Small Axe came out of King Tubbys along with Black Harmony But from what I remember they came from the Landor Road Area Brixton, We played at the same blues dances on many occasions and Shepard's on Railton Road for years. Neville King Sound
@@GaryMcGhie yes Keith axe preddie was small axe. His bigger brother starky was the owner of the pool house on landor Rd.
Respect Robbie 💪🏿👍🏿🙏🏿🫡
The music 😮💨
IT WAS VINCENT RAT, FROM RATS SECURITY WAS THE ONE WHO SAVED HIM. ALL THIS CAN BE CONFIRMED.
Do Bogle and willie haggart
Rip 🙏
I had a friend like priest. Always had some bs going on. Especially behind a girl.
Uh oh, sounds like Maxi may have been a little messy 🫤🫤🫤
Max Elliott (Maxi Priest) is my cousin. I am going to ask him to confirm this.
Let me know, I enjoyed his music from back in the day.
Ok.
Do you know jacky Elliot?
@@marciadenson4382 I have not met Jacky. My family is huge. I was born in America and never been to Jamaica where my grandmother Lois Jean Elliott was born in St Elizabeth (Bull Savanna). There are so many family members to meet.
@@marciadenson4382 Are you related to us or know some of my family members?
They put a pic of big percy to represent keithy axe Lol
What film was that again. Uptown Saturday Night?
@@darganx yes
This man Kiki wos very lucky
Hey bredder RAS, did ya ever do one bout ub40? Years back i heard maxi was supposed to take over for ali Campbell. Forgive me if i missed it but I'd love to hear about how all them doing.🤙
Yes I did a video last year. You're right Maxi played that role for a tour I think. Will do a new one but here's the old one ruclips.net/video/E-ArrjwuJ4Y/видео.htmlsi=8JP8tdbi9fkpcSnR
@@ReggaeAppreciationSociety bless I💯🤙
This is incorrect, Axe was a Brixton man
My friend Julian cut off Maxi Priest's locks.
I remember that 😆. Cut of a few locks but not all of it. Dam thst was a long time ago.
@@jaydebeer7251 I am an old chap!!
I asked Julian what he did with the locks and he said that he dashed them in the road.
@@anyawaleofondo lol cold
Maxi Priest focus too much on girl as a man with locks
YES
I wonder what you'd say about Bob Marley, huh?
--Æ.
It come like you focus too much on man.
@@AckeeEater.
The same, do you think he is any different?
@@JayFreezeee
Not all pusy a good pusy memba dat, discipline is virtue my friend.
You got your story wrong about Keith axe he is not from Brixton h is a sound system owner from a sound named Small axe uk from brixton he later moved to Spanish Town and now he is late
